Here's To The Future at the Disneyland Resort

Yes!
Disneyland and Disney California Adventure open up at 8 a.m. today.
Shouldn't be busy getting in.


Walking through Downtown Disney, this set up promoting Captain America Civil War was on display.
Not sure if there will be more or what this set up is exactly

Disneyland


A new Autopia poster appeared in the tunnel


Here is what the previous Autopia poster looked like






First stop was Autopia!


The new Autopia presented by Honda sign




















The grandstand got a new paint job








The Wonderful World of Disney
The Wonderful World of Tomorrow
Magic Highway USA
The last segment of the episode is played on the Autopia electronic billboard



The segment stated starts at 39:28

Inside the Autopia circular shaft, the episode is also displayed in the three windows.
Gone are the Chevron animated car segments








With a new sponsor comes a new Official Driver License for Autopia






New Autopia cars displaying the Honda logo mixed in with the Chevron style cars



At this time Autopia went down due to technical difficulties.
Something happened with the removable track piece that allows the Cast Member to pull off cars.
So they had to get their maintenance guys to come out.

Not many people were in the queue so they gave everyone a readmission pass.
Only 8 cars had Guests and they were able to make it to the end and got evacuated off.









With Autopia down, I decided to continue on.
Onward to Big Thunder Mountain Railroad!



Look at how excited they are at the notion that Star Wars Land is coming to Disneyland





I touched something sticky while on my way towards Hungry Bear restaurant.


Not really paying attention, I almost ran into this little setup
I guess since the fence doesn't continue to the rocks, they have this set up to act as a barricade




Bulldozers and dump trucks










Green colored sticks have been added
Last week it was pink and yellow
















A view of Big Thunder Trail









Autopia should be up and running again
So I shall head back




Thought about using my readmission pass, but there wasn't much of a line so I decided to just wait it out.






This is the track piece I had mentioned earlier.
I am not exactly sure what happened, but from where I was in the queue, a couple Cast Members were huddled around it before claiming the attraction was down


New light posts




Hey!
What happened to the Phase One signs that were displayed earlier?
I hope they weren't stolen


Kool-Aid Red


Icee Blue




Even Honda has the power of dreams






Off roading in my Autopia car









Pretty much it's the same ride as before.




Retro style postcard






So, what did you think of the refurbished Autopia presented by Honda?










Two vehicle design Autopia driver license
















This sign should be removed any day now, along with the FastPass machines






Well, well.
Look like Mr. Glass Elephant has returned


This elephant use to be displayed at the Penny Arcade






Hopefully there's no earthquake.

Gonna go on my stair master, aka Tarzan Treehouse


Yup! Can see the Mickey and Friends Parking Structure from here


Looking out towards Big Thunder and Star Wars Land


Crowds are pouring in












Taking a closer look at Donald and his jughead hat at the button details












More "art" displayed at the Meet and Greet for Captain America and Spider-Man






The bag checks are now performed by the Disneyland Resort Security.

Now it's time to climb to the top of the Mickey and Friends Parking Structure to see the progress of Star Wars Land






































What have we done?





That will conclude today's pictorial
